Probably the best live album ever. Strangers in the Night UFO is great too.

Well, if Gun N' Roses' "Appetite For Destruction" is so much better than Def Leppard's "Hysteria" album why hasn't it outsold it? I think you'll find the worldwide sales figures for both albums are roughly the same.

Outsold it? That's weak argument when we talk about music.
But still, Deaf Leopard haven't cracked the top 10 of all time. It's AC/DC, GnR debut, Metallica self-titled, Eagles, Bon Jovi, etc.

Bon Scott wrote EVERY song on BACK IN BLACK & was never credited nor his family given a dime. Isn't it interesting how every album after BIB was never as successful as BIB? Now you know why.

What about Ronnie James Dio?

Eat this hipsters.

Def Leppard - Hysteria (Full Album):

Absolutely, love that album. "pour some sugar on me" still gets me going, lol! Had no idea how much I missed this shit until I heard it recently by random. (also getting old...)

But STP is my favorite, listening to the purple album in the moment. The song "meatplow" is epic. If I were to go to the strippers and a chick appeared on stage on that song, I'd fall in love immediately (she must move properly to it, I have a vision of how this must happen)

Predictably laughable. Not even DL's greatest album.

3 of my favorites, off the top of my head.

Don't know, never a huge fan. That said, LOVED Pyromania. High and Dry, good too, probably more pure. And they kicked ass at the LA Forum in '83 (w/ Uriah Heep), my second show ever.

But I was 14. And even then I knew the latter stuff was over-processed pop.

Strange cat but he can yell - no doubt he has chops

The Ugly · « **Reply #42 on:** May 16, 2015, 10:42:28 AM »

Certainly a Zeppelin or Stones record should be on top, ain't guessing which. And, against all my gritty, blues-based sensibilities, Joshua Tree isn't far below.

SO many others to consider, though.

So no love for Foreigner? You guys are as cold as ice.
